Dude I Hate My Job – Anything Is Possible
The clock has just hit 12:01 and I’m sitting here at my desk thinking about all
the amazing possibilities people now have because of the Internet…
I mean think about it… When was it EVER possible for a kid still living at
home, with NO money at all, submit a video to a website, and have over 1
million people view it?
NEVER!
It’s completely astonishing to me and I honestly can’t get over it. I mean
seriously… Think about it!
What’s even crazier is that without the Internet, I would not be where I am
now. Sitting with two six-figure per year businesses at the age of 18. I’m
making more money than 95% of Americans do working FULL TIME at their
job and it’s all thanks to the Internet!
Also think about this… Which other job can you be sleeping and making
money at the same time? Or how about making money while you’re partying
on the weekends!
That’s the thing about the Internet; you can be making money 24/7 and
hardly have to be at your computer!
How did I get started? Well I was sitting in class one day (yes in high school)
and received a text message from a friend that there’s been this new blog
that’s started up at out school gossiping about all the kids. So me being a
teenager, I decided to check it out when I got home!
It was the simplest idea EVER and honestly didn’t last longer than a week
because the school got involved and decided to shut it down. That’s when it
hit me.
Why don’t I start something like that and I can make money from it!

At the time, I had no idea on how to even start with making money online, but
I assumed if I had a few hundred people visit the page, I would be a
millionaire.
Yeah… I was wrong about that one, but it did start me on this online
adventure needless to say!
I then started up a blog where I posted high school parties in Los Angeles for
kids to check out. My blog started to receive such a following that I would
have 800-1000 people show up at a house with ONE blog post…
That’s when all the puzzle pieces really fit together for me.
I thought, if blogging is really this easy and has this much power, I could make
a ton of money doing it!
Well that’s when I started doing a bunch of research on ways to blog and make
money doing it.
Let me tell you, there’s A LOT of crap out there that taught me absolutely
nothing.
But the one thing I did learn a lot about is Affiliate Marketing. Most of you may
already know what that is but if you don’t, let me explain real quick.
It’s when you sell someone else’s product for a commission. This means all
you have to do is send people to a website through your “custom affiliate link”
and when they purchase something on their site, you make money!
When I heard this I almost went nuts… This sounded like a complete GOLD
MINE!

Next thing I did was combine my affiliate marketing knowledge and started
up a blog where I literally just reviewed other people’s products. Then I just
gave my affiliate link after each product review and when people would read
my posts, they would click the link in it and purchase. I would then make a
nice commission for doing nothing at all!
Where did I get my traffic?
Well, the great thing about blogging is that search engines like Google love
you! Since you’re always posting new blog posts and people are commenting
and all that, they consider you as a fresh and always updated website which
they love.
So what I would do in my blog post is literally title it the name of the product
with review after it. Search engines like Google would now rank me for those
keywords!
Best thing about it is that most of the products I reviewed were all digital run
through a site called Clickbank. They would then just send me the checks
every two weeks and I would cash them. That’s it!
Here’s an example of what I would title my blog post as:

That’s just an example of a post I would do but people would look for it on
search engines like Google. I would then show up on the first page (since it
was a blog and keywords matched) and traffic would flow in!
And guess how much money I would average from doing something as simple
as this… Over $250 per day!
For just writing blog posts, which took about 30 minutes a day, I was
extremely happy with that… I think you would be too. 
… But after about 3 months or so, I wanted to turn this $250 per day to $500,
$800, or even $1,000 per day!
And that’s exactly what I did!
How?
Well let me tell you this. It involved blogging but not about product reviews…
It was something actually VERY different!
I decided to start up a blog about myself. Yes, I just said myself…
Instead of blogging about stuff that I wasn’t really enjoying (even though it
was bringing in good money) I wanted to start blogging about my passion.
Something that I loved and wouldn’t mind spending a few hours a day
working on.
So after debating over and over what my passion was, I decided, “helping
people get started online” was the one.
I would see all my friends working lame baby-sitting gigs, local fast food
joints, or even not being able to find a job!
That then triggered something in my head…

What if I could help people get started online through affiliate marketing like I
did. So what I did was start up a blog called AdamHorwitz.tv.
Yes, I actually used my name in the website domain… CRAZINESS!
I talk a lot about this in my course Dude I Hate My Job and why it’s EXTREMLY
important to have your own name in your domain.
Anyway, here’s a snapshot of my blog for you to check out…
… And I would post videos and articles on different ways people could easily
get started online through affiliate marketing.
But the key thing about it was I wouldn’t ALWAYS talk about make money
tips… I would also talk about my personal life to bring in the personal
relationship between my readers and me. Now they would trust me more
since they knew more about me.

Since I was 17 at the time of doing this, things went quite viral for me. People
were astonished that someone at such a young age could be making this much
money and teaching other people how to do it as well!
Also when people started to make money using my methods, they would tell
their friends and so forth.
I had SO much fun doing this because I was helping thousands of people and
at the same time, making money!
That’s great and all Adam but how were you making money with this new
blog? Wasn’t all the stuff you were giving your blog readers free?
Yes…
Majority of it was free but every so often I would through in an affiliate link
with my blog posts… For example, if you give people a lot of free good content,
when you recommend an affiliate product, they think how much better that
content must be than your free content and buy it right away!
That’s exactly what I would do. Create a good video post on affiliate marketing
and then link them to an affiliate marketing course through my affiliate link!
Believe it or not, some of my blog posts would make over $2,000 in under
three days because people would think there’s so much value in them and buy
the product that I linked to in the post!

After doing this for a while I decided that I wanted to make EVEN MORE
MONEY.
… So after brainstorming about different ways to do this, I decided to come
out with my own courses on how to make money online.
I was so excited about this and knew I could make a ton of money doing it was
because I had already branded myself pretty well with my blog.
All I had to do now was create my own product and let my blog readers know
to literally buy it! That’s it… And as soon as I put it on my blog, I had a surge of
sales bringing me thousands of dollars.
Here’s a snapshot showing where I would put my courses on my blog:
You can see them listed on the right side of my blog and I still have them up! I
obviously didn’t have all three when I first started; I just keep adding new
ones to the list!

That’s the power of building your brand… You can literally do ANYTHING and
still have a following because people know you from your brand you’ve
created for yourself.
… So now that you know how I was able to start up a blog about my passion
and brand, I wanted to show you a few other people doing the same and
making a fortune!
Starting from the left I’ll explain a little about each and how they are making
their money through blogging about their passions…
1) The first one on the left is a YouTube Partner who calls himself Fred.
You may have heard of him before but he’s 17 years old and makes over
$50,000 per month just video blogging about a random character that
he’s come up with. Creating videos and acting is his passion and he’s
turned it into a full time business where he makes more money in a
month than most people do in a year! You Tube pays him as a YouTube
partner, which is how he makes his money.
2) Perez Hilton is a 32-year-old full time blogger that averages over two
million dollars per year from his blog. He blogs about his passion,
which is celebrity gossip. Majority of the money he makes is from
People advertising on his blog. He charges $200,000 for just three
months of advertising!

3) Gregory Ng runs a video blog about different types of frozen foods…
He’s always loved frozen foods and realized that was his passion! Once
he started the blog, it gained major exposure and he now has big
advertisers like Mountain Dew! 
4) The last person on the list is Timothy Sykes. He has to have one of the
best affiliate setup blogs that I’ve ever seen. His passion has always
been penny stock trading and he’s always been very good at it. He then
decided to start up a blog on how to be successful with penny stock
trading and makes over $200,000 per month doing just that. He does it
all through affiliate marketing and selling his own products kind of like
me!
Another great thing to help your brand and build that personal relationship
with your blog readers is using as many social media sites as possible! This is
actually a vital part of my success as well.
I have a Facebook Fan Page and a Twitter account that I use all the time to
keep up with my readers and customers. What this does is build my brand
and personal relationship even more.
The reason why I use a Facebook Fan Page over a regular Facebook profile is
because they aren’t limited to how many friends you can have. Facebook
profiles are limited to 5,000 per account.
You want to have as many Facebook Fans as possible, not have a limit!
I have both my Twitter and my Facebook Fan Page listed right on my blog for
readers to access whenever they way.
… Something really interesting about it is that I NEVER sell any products using
my social sites. I honestly think that completely ruins the whole point of
having them.

The main reason you have them is to build up your relationship and be able to
easily communicate with your readers!
They don’t want to have products being pitched to them all the time via
Twitter and Facebook, they just want to be your friend…
…. That’s my philosophy at least. ;)
There are tons of other social sites other than Twitter and Facebook but I
think those are definitely the most important ones!
But if you’re posting videos on your blog like I am, a YouTube Channel is also
pretty important in my opinion.
Here is what my Facebook Fan Page looks like so you can get a good idea on
what I’m doing to carry my brand out. I’ve also had a custom section built
onto it that tells people to “like” me which is the same as becoming a fan.
Facebook has just changed it to “like” instead…

Hopefully this has showed you that anything is possible and blogging about
your passion is something YOU should really consider looking into.
… Yes I know it may be a bit overwhelming not knowing exactly how to get
started, and I’m not going to lie and say it’s extremely easy, because it’s not!
But the one great thing about it is when you’re blogging about your passion or
something you love, you don’t mind putting in the work and effort. Right? It’s
your freakin’ passion!
Since I know for a fact that the biggest reason most people haven’t started
blogging about their passion yet is not knowing what to do, I’ve decided to
come out with a step-by-step video course to show ANYONE exactly how I did
it. You can literally just watch over my shoulder and copy everything I did to
make over $450 per day. How easy is that?!
The course is called Dude I Hate My Job and you can get instant access to the
step-by-step videos RIGHT NOW by visiting my super cool site. 
